Rules
To me, if you partially fall into a hole, ie. foot falls into a small pothole, you've fallen in it but not down it.
If I'm walking around in a hole and stumble, I've also fallen in a hole (but not into/down)
Yes, although I think that's parsed differently-- you've [fallen] [in a hole] not [fallen in] [a hole]
Yeah. I feel like fell down implies you travelled some not insignifcant distance while falling.
